Powerful trailer for Michael D. Gough’s ‘Add the Words’ Documentary

Hey, guys! Let me give you all a little background on the issue behind this upcoming documentary because it is one that is deeply personal to me. As some of you may or may not know, I reside in the wonderful Boise, Idaho. For the past 8 years (8 YEARSSSS, GUYS) the Add the Words movement has been trying to get legislation passed that would add gay and transgender people into the Idaho Human Rights Act, therefore adding gay and transgender people to the list of people who are “protected” from discrimination under the law. Well this past legislation session has been the most heated since the movement got started, with peaceful protests being held consistently and hundreds of gay rights supporters being arrested over the last few months. I’m so glad that Gough (Hell Bent for Victory and Dying Famous) recognized that this is a story that needs to be told. This issue needs widespread attention so if you guys feel so inclined, please share this trailer! Idaho is crazy right now, guys. The majority of the population agrees with this movement but the legislators aren’t hearing any of it. The nation needs to see this.
